Information You Provide
Search Queries
When you type a name, location, or related term into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read, route, and respond to it. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, each page load can create routine technical records, including:
- Your IP address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device category and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- The referring website, when available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools help measure how visitors use the site and whether pages are working correctly. You can block cookies in your browser, but some features or analytics may behave differently after you do.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which pages and record topics are useful.
- To detect errors, broken links, and technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on visitor interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to sheriff pages, jail rosters, court portals, corrections departments, federal locators, and third-party search tools. After you leave this site, the destination website's own privacy policy controls what happens there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to understand activity across websites and show interest-based ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Chatham County Inmate Population.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a standalone product. It may be available to these categories of recipients when needed:
- Search partners that process submitted search terms.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks used to support the site.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used to protect site systems and messages, but no internet-connected service can be promised to be completely secure or breach-proof.
